Herniation of the transverse colon into the mediastinum after the use of an omental flap for mediastinitis

We describe a rare complication, transverse colon herniation into the mediastinum, after the use of an omental flap. Adequate separation of the transverse colon from the omental flap and ensuring that the incision in the diaphragm is as small as possible are important preventive measures.
